Wouldn't that be counter-logical? My (albeit limited) understanding<br>
is that Ubuntu is an answer to Debian's lack of bleeding edge support.<br>
If you want stability, you choose Debian. If you want Debian but you<br>
also want bleeding, you use Ubuntu. By extension, Mythbuntu would be<br>
"bleeding optional" which from the description sounds like it fits.<br>
If you want the Micky-Mouse that Ubuntu puts on top of Debian but want<br>
to complain when others follow that same logic then you seem to be<br>
either confusing the point of Ubuntu or complaining at the wrong group<br>
of packagers. In my wildly abstract world I view it like this:<br>
Debian brings Linux to the System Admins<br>
Ubuntu brings Debian to the end-users<br>
By extension:<br>
Mythbuntu brings mythtv to end-users<br>

It's insanely simple now to install a complete system for MythTV in whatever configuration as well as add MythTV to an existing Ubuntu install. While I'm glad that I went through installing everything manually several times before Mythbuntu ever was (so I can understand the whole process), it just makes me like the pre-packaged CD so much more...<br>
